Agios Ioannis Beach Thassos

Agios Ioannis Beach is a stunning and historic beach on the southeastern coast of Thassos, located near the ancient marble quarries of Aliki. It features a shore of fine pebbles and sand with exceptionally clear emerald water, surrounded by high rocky cliffs and olive groves. The beach is named after the small white chapel that stands on the hillside above, providing a panoramic view of the coastline. It is partially organized with a few sunbeds and a quiet beach bar, but it maintains a raw and majestic character that reflects the ancient history of the region. The water is deep and fresh, offering a high-quality environment for a long swim in a scenic setting. It is a destination for those who appreciate the silence and the striking geological features of the coast. You should bring your own supplies if you move away from the small organized section. The entry into the water is via the stones and the clarity is consistently high. The atmosphere is quiet and respectful.
